The HKBU‧Regal Holdings Golf Day 2012 was held with a great success on 1 March 2013, re-scheduled from 23 November 2012 owing to the inclement weather, at the Eden Course of The Hong Kong Golf Club, Fanling. The ceremonial tee-off was officiated by Mr. William Leung, BBS, JP, Treasurer of the HKBU Foundation, Professor Albert S.C. Chan, JP, President and Vice-Chancellor, and Dr. Ronald Lu, Co-Chairman of the HKBU Golf Day Organising Committee. In recognition of Regal Holdings Corporation, being the title sponsor of HKBU Golf Day for the fourth year, a souvenir was presented to its Group President, Mr. Allan Kwong.
This year's Golf Day attracted 150 golf-lovers, including business and community leaders, HKBU staff, alumni and students, who formed 38 teams to take part in the competition. The event has raised HK$1.28 million for the HKBU Foundation.
After the keen competition, a dinner cum prize giving ceremony was held. In his address, Professor Frank Fu, MH, JP, Secretary-General of the HKBU Foundation and Associate Vice-President, thanked the HKBU Golf Day Organising Committee and all the sponsors for making the event a success. He said being held in its ninth year, the Golf Day has not only helped to raise funds for the University's development, but also helped to broaden its social network.
The many fun moments at the Golf Day were captured in the newspaper supplements published in Hong Kong Economic Times and Sing Tao Daily on 8 March.
